Series 66: Interest Rates And Bond Prices

Taken from our Series 66 Online Guide

Interest Rates and Bond Prices

As interest rates rise, the prices of bonds decline in the secondary market, because investors can invest their money in higher paying new issues. This is considered market risk for bond investors.

I passed the Series 66 exam with an 83 this morning! I wanted to personally thank you for all the help you have given me. Your method of presenting the information needed to pass these exams is outstanding (I only had two weeks to study). In the future I wouldn't even consider using another resource to tackle the preparation for a Series exam. Moving forward in my career I will be sure to pass this information on to friends and colleagues without hesitation.

I found encouragement along the way from reading other people's testimonials, so payback is to write one of my own. Solomon is the gold standard for customer service. I passed the 66, SIE first tries -- received a 69% on the 7 (failed), but passed on the 2nd attempt. I'm in awe over the outreach I received from day 1 but especially from Jeremy on how to move forward after falling short on the Series 7 - followed his advice - one of which was to get the accompanying videos and passed. Watching/studying the Chapter 5 video had a big impact. I also printed the questions I got wrong that I particularly struggled with while taking the online exams, printed and/or turned them into flashcards, then taped many of them around the house. It forced me to constantly revisit the information and moved me past a superficial understanding. I'll take a messy-looking home for a short time than having to retake a 3 hour and 45 minute exam.

Thanks to you guys, I passed my Series 7 the first time around on Tuesday the 21st. The information given was not only accurate but easy to absorb due to the way the material was set up in your course. I will back to study the Series 66 with you.

The Solomon Series 66 prep material was very comprehensive and practice quizzes and exams helped a great deal to gauge my likelihood of passing the exam

Your Pass the 7 and Pass the 66 training manuals were really well written and the generous dose of sarcasm was excellent. I would recommend your materials to anyone who needs to take these exams.

Hi Jeremy & Karen, I just passed my 66 today! I'm so thrilled! I had an interruption of my studies a few weeks back due to some distracting issues, but I got back on track, focused hard on the book, the practice quizzes and exams, and I made it! I'm a true believer in the value of your study materials. I'd recommend your firm's materials to anyone that wants to pass the first time they take these really challenging exams. Now I've got my Series 7 and my Series 66, and I did it with the terrific support of this Exam Prep. Thank you for these great study materials.
